Usage notes
- म्हातारे (mhātāre) is used instead of जुने (j̈une) when referring to the advanced biological age of people or animals, especially senior citizens.[3]
- जुने (j̈une) generally refers to the age of things rather than people. An exception to this generalisation is when it refers to for people that have been known for a long time such as:[3]
- जुना मित्र ― j̈unā mitra ― a longtime friend
- which is distinct from:
- म्हातारा मित्र ― mhātārā mitra ― an elderly friend
Derived terms
